The Professional Scrum Master Guide: The unofficial guide to Scrum with real-world projects

Excellent

Highly recommend this book for anyone prepping for PSMI exam. I would like to really thank the Author and publishers of this book.

Good book...gained knowledge on scrum with real time examples. Must read book to gain knowledge on Scrum.. Scrum Master...Agile methodology

Simple language, crisp and clear.A starting book for scrum master.Helpful for scrum master certification.Examples given in the book are also good.

Pros:This is a great book and it is well organised and easy to understand. The book is laid out nicely so that each subject is tested with mini-quizzes before some broader questions at the end. I found it really useful.Suggestions to improve and clear the exam-• 7-8 pages Scrum guide is Bible for the PSM-I exam. Though book had covered everything in detail but inbulid short notes are always preferred. So, it would be good if that original Scrum guide could also be attached at start or end (whichever been preferred) along with short font which page had covered that point. (People could get that Scrum guide that from Scrum.org main website but why to make that extra pain).• Though book had many questions but sample atleast 3-4 full length test papers(solved) are missing. Practicing questions is second key to pass the exam.• Proper Tools Usage missing- Following above two points are enough to pass the exam but this point will help for practical implementation. I see the tools mentioned like velocity chart, burndown and burnup charts under JIRA dashboard, but accurate guided steps missing. Could have added a short Section of 7-8 pages as Appendix for tools actually guiding how to build them.Lastly Practice Practice Practice the Scrum guide + full length test back and forth till get above 85% in each.

This is a good introduction to the Scrum.It gives an overview of the framework, it's principles and usage and to a little extent also prepares for the PSM certification.The quality of content is good as it presents the information in a lucid and crisp manner.However, I felt that the content is inadequate especially for those who want to go beyond the basics and learn the nuances of the methodology.I also felt that it is overpriced when compared to content.The other problem is that it has several mistakes that I could easily find during my first reading.

On my first attempt at attaining the PSM-I certification, I failed, after reading the Scrum Guide and the "Definitive Guide to PSM-I". I found the questions asked in the exam did not correspond, in enough instances, to the SCRUM guide. However, the material in "The Professional Scrum Master (PSM I) Guide: Successfully practice Scrum with real-world projects and achieve your PSM I certification with confidence", covered scenarios that were posited in the PSM-I certification test. I think, if you want to pass the PSM-I, as I have, read the SCRUM guide, but supplement it with this book!

I bought it for school purposes

Impeccable, reçu très bien emballé.

The questions after each chapter was very helpful

Good books are meant to be in simple English and straight to the point to ease understanding .
